Union Station | Additional Description: "Union Station" was named from its function as a location where two or more common
carriers (railroads) arrive and depart, allowing a transfer of passengers and express.
When Tampa Union Station was built in 1912, it was served by three railroads (Atlantic
Coast Line RR, Seaboard Air Line RR, and Tampa & Gulf Coast RR), thereby creating a
"union" of the three lines.
